Illustration for Credit Contracts and Consumer Finance Act 2003

This part of the law does not limit what a dispute resolution scheme can do. You can still go to a dispute resolution scheme if you think someone has not met their obligations under the Credit Contracts and Consumer Finance Act. The dispute resolution scheme's job is explained in the Financial Service Providers (Registration and Dispute Resolution) Act 2008, which you can find at https://legislation.govt.nz/act/public/1986/0120/latest/link.aspx?id=DLM1109578.
